How bookies have reacted to Philippe Coutinho's comments about Liverpool future

Barcelona continue to remain interested in Coutinho, after a summer where they failed to prise the Brazilian away from Liverpool.

German football legend Lothar Matthaus has claimed that Philippe Coutinho is being played in a wrong position for Liverpool. That season, it was Luis Suarez who scored from all conceivable angles to become the official Premier League player of the season that year, and his equivalent this year in terms of goal quantity has been Egypt worldwide Mohamed Salah.

His wonder goal against Spartak on Wednesday showed what he's capable of, the first of a brace on the night, while Coutinho helped himself to a first-ever Liverpool hat-trick on the night he wore the captain's armband. What will happen in January, we will know it in January.

This January transfer market will force Liverpool's owners, Fenway Sports Group, to weigh up what they value and whether losing Coutinho is worth that prize, with Ferdinand backing the star to deserve such a hefty cost. Coutinho has responded well this season and insists any fresh speculation will not have a detrimental impact on his focus and form at Anfield.

Barcelona are being widely tipped to return with a big-money offer in the January transfer window. I don't know if there will be an offer. Coutinho has declared that he will do his best for Liverpool in the short term, but also did not rule out a move to Barcelona in January. From where I see it, he is more comfortable inside, but the good thing about this player is that he can play in several positions. "But since I've stayed at the club I have entered the pitch with great will and strength".
